Tuning: E A D G B E

ARTIST: Mississippi John Hurt SONG: Make me down a pallet on your floor (1928) No real verses or chorus or anything specific here. Play instrumental parts everytime you feel like it: that's definitely how he would do it. Play some F6 with a pinkie hammer on the Fmaj7 for more groove.
